Rheological Properties of Heavy Crude Oil Containing Sand From Bo-Hai Oilfield in China

This paper presents an experimental study on the rheological properties of heavy crude oil containing sand to determine the effects of sand size distribution and mass concentration on apparent viscosity, thixotropic behavior, yield stress and viscoelastic properties. The results of these analyses de...
